511 <command>sed -e ...</command>: The first sed prevents compression of the
512 manual pages, the second one prevents the install from failing, and the
513 third one allows the build to use poppler-0.86.1 and later.
514 <!-- FIXME update hardcoded poppler version in text when necessary -->

520 on the toolbar.

523 <para>
524 <parameter>--with-lang='fr en-GB'</parameter>: This switch sets
525 what languages to support. To list several languages, separate them with
526 a space. For all languages, use
527 <parameter>--with-lang=ALL</parameter>. Note that the translations file
528 is not needed and won't be downloaded if using only en_US as a language.

540 are not built.

543 <para>
544 <parameter>--with-jdk-home=/opt/jdk</parameter>: This parameter will silence
545 a warning that the configure script attempted to find JAVA_HOME
546 automatically (even though that is passed in the environment). Omit this if
547 you disabled java.
548 </para>
549

552 dictionaries to the <application>LibreOffice</application> installation
553 set.

556 <para>

559 instead of its internal one.
560 </para>
561 -->
562 <para>
563 <parameter>--with-system-boost</parameter>: This switch enables using
564 system boost. From time to time, recent versions of boost break
565 the build of libreoffice. In this case, it is possible to use the
566 bundled copy of boost, by removing this flag.
567 </para>
568
569 <para>
570 <parameter>--disable-dconf</parameter>: This switch disables compiling
571 <application>LibreOffice</application> with the
572 <application>GNOME DConf</application> configuration system support.

579 to build this driver replace this switch with the set of switches
580 described below after '- -without-java'.-->

586 are used.

588
589 <para>
590 <parameter>--disable-odk</parameter>: This switch disables installing the
591 office development kit. Remove if you want to develop a
592 <application>LibreOffice</application> based application.
593 </para>
594
595 <para>
596 <parameter>--enable-release-build=yes</parameter>: This switch enables a
597 Release Build. <application>LibreOffice</application> can be built as a
598 Release Build or as a Developer Build, because their default installation
599 paths and user profile paths are different. Developer Build displays the
600 words "Dev" and "Beta" in several places (e.g, menu and splash screen).
601 </para>
602
603 <para>
604 <parameter>--enable-python=system</parameter>: This switch tells
605 <application>LibreOffice</application> to use the system installed
606 <application>Python 3</application> instead of
607 the bundled one.
608 </para>
609
610 <para>
611 <parameter>--with-system-*</parameter>: These switches prevent
612 <application>LibreOffice</application> from trying to compile its own
613 versions of these dependencies. If you've not installed some of the
614 dependencies, remove the corresponding switches.

629 install a lot of (text) gid_Module_* files in the DESTDIR, to help
630 distributions which want to break the package into parts.

634 <option>--with-parallelism=&lt;count&gt;</option>: This switch
635 tells <application>LibreOffice</application> to use &lt;count&gt; CPU
636 cores to compile in parallel. (Do not include literal angle brackets.)
637 The default is to use all available cores on the system.

648 via PackageKit.

651 <para>

672 <option>--disable-postgresql-sdbc</option>: This switch disables compiling
673 <application>LibreOffice</application> with the ability to connect to a

675 installed <application>PostgreSQL</application> and you do not want
676 <application>LibreOffice</application> to compile its bundled copy.

679 <para>
680 <option>--enable-gtk3-kde5</option>: This switch allows the Visual Class
681 Library, which is responsible for widgets, to be built with KF5 file
682 dialogs if GTK+-3, Qt5 and Plasma are all available.
683 </para>
684
685 <para>
686 <option>--enable-lto</option>: This switch will enable Link Time
687 Optimization, which results in slightly smaller libraries (about 40 MB).
688 This is said to make <application>LibreOffice</application> programs
689 load faster (and possibly run faster, e.g. when recalculating a
690 spreadsheet). On an 8-core machine with 16GB of memory, the difference
691 in compile times was minimal, but an extra 2GB was used for the work
692 files. On machines with fewer processors or a lack of memory, the compile
693 might be much slower.
694 </para>
695
696 <para>
697 <option>--without-java</option>: This switch disables
698 <application>Java</application> support in
699 <application>LibreOffice</application>. Java is needed for the
700 deprecated HSQLDB driver, which allows reading databases created by
701 other programs or in earlier versions of libreoffice
702 <application>base</application>.

716 versions.

723 installed in <filename class="directory">/usr</filename>, the include
724 and library directories must be specified in <envar>QT5INC</envar>,

739 thing to do. However, one of the very minor packages pulled in by
740 <application>LibreOffice</application>, libfreehand-0.1.2, does not compile
741 with ICU-65.1 because of a missing semi-colon at the end of one line in one
742 of its files. Do not use this option unless you have separately installed a
